[GUI Plugin] Ex Libris - Page 3

Terisa de morgan · 10-22-2012, 06:11 AM

Yes, that I mean. And yes, it's in that directory. And I think it's really a jpg file. How can I know it?

AlPe · 10-22-2012, 07:13 AM

Sounds strange, as if the image cannot be rendered correctly on those readers.

Can you post the code of your ex libris XHTML page or email your eBook (with the ex libris) to me?

Terisa de morgan · 10-22-2012, 07:15 AM

Yes, I send you the ebook this evening.

AlPe · 10-22-2012, 05:44 PM

Great.

For everybody else: problem solved ("image.JPG" instead of "image.jpg" in the XHTML ex libris page).

AlPe · 11-11-2012, 10:31 AM

Update!

Version 1.0.15 - 11 Nov 2012

Added support for replacing string placeholders in the XHTML ex libris page with Calibre metadata. For example, in your ex libris XHTML page use [%calibre-title%] to replace it with the title from the Calibre metadata; [%title%] still fetches the title as specified in the OPF file inside the EPUB. The list of available metadata keys can be read in the configuration dialog.

Added HELP dialog.

Added ex libris examples in the ZIP file.

Thank you, I'll get it. I like the idea of including series info in my ex-libris.

AlPe · 11-11-2012, 10:59 AM

Great. Let me know if you find out problems with the calibre metadata substitution.

Terisa de morgan · 11-11-2012, 01:56 PM

I have already checked it and it works great for series, thank you very much, but I have a problem: calibre-series is supported, but I can't find the way to include the index in the series, isn't it supported?

AlPe · 11-11-2012, 02:06 PM

Are you talking about the series_index as described in this page:

http://manual.calibre-ebook.com/template_lang.html ? I guess it is not supported in this release.

Right now I have had the chance of adding "basic" metadata fields, but I want to give the user the ability of using custom fields as well. But I have to better understand Calibre internals for metadata.

Terisa de morgan · 11-11-2012, 02:14 PM

Yes, that's the right one. Thank you very much, I only wanted to know

AlPe · 11-11-2012, 02:16 PM

Ok, I'll try to implement this as a quick "fix" by the end of this week. Thanks for letting me know.

AlPe · 11-14-2012, 12:04 PM

Version 1.0.16 - 14 Nov 2012

Added support for series-index Calibre metadatum. Use [%calibre-series-index%] in your XHTML ex libris page to get it (and [%calibre-series%] for the series name).

AlPe · 11-14-2012, 12:07 PM

BTW, I see from the number of downloads that more than 1,000 people use this plugin. (True? That number is huge!)

Terisa de morgan · 11-14-2012, 12:30 PM

Thank you very much! I'll try it now

Terisa de morgan · 11-14-2012, 12:35 PM

I've already checked it and it works great but I've found a small mistake. I've used the option to remove the exlibris and replace, and the confirmation message is the same you get when you add exlibris and replace (although it works well later).

Anyway, it's wonderful, thank you (I have some envious friends about this, but they don't use calibre

)
